Throughout the season, the LMA Institute of Leadership and High Performance runs a programme of full day masterclasses at professional football and elite sport venues around the country.
The masterclasses aim to bring together managers and coaches from the professional game with wellbeing, personal development, leadership and sports performance experts to explore and discuss vocationally relevant new thinking and ideas. The masterclasses aim to reinforce the ongoing community of practice within the profession, as well as providing the platform for individuals’ further personal development, skill development and behaviour change.
